Nearby my home I am fortunate enough to have a patch of rainforest/ sclerophyll that is always worth a visit. I can sit with the Eastern yellow Robins, Rufous and Grey Fantails, listening to the elusive Eastern Whipbirds calling and I occasionally manage a glimpse of them as they flit under some greenery. In the canopy overhead are green catbirds, Rainbow Lorikeets, Spangled Drongos, Kookaburras, Golden Whistlers, Rufous Whistlers, and many many more. It is a time to restore and relax for me even in the rain. If I get lucky then I will bring home some pictures, but always... I bring home memories of time well spent in my own company.
